Dreyeth [Visitor] in response to: Why Linux is AnnoyingMon, 29 Aug 2016 01:10:39 +0000Dreyeth[Visitor]c647@http://wdawe.com/<p>As a follow Linux user, it is delusional to think that people that realize Linux is completely annoying &#8216;just can&#8217;t come to grips on the ways that Linux is different&#8217;.</p>
<p>Everything about the operating system is annoying at one time or another, I use it because its free, keeps malware out of my system, and its customizable, and I can get it not directly vendored by a corporation (though tons of them are involved in it).</p>
<p>Writing in a undocumented programming language to switch you&#8217;re default sound card in /etc/asound.conf is beyond screwy.</p>
<p>Crawling across the internet to put together pieces of undocumented behaviors to get your keyboard layout working on the grub &#169; prompt isn&#8217;t fun, though after 3-4 years I&#8217;ve finally found the documentation I was looking for posted on a couple forums.</p>
<p>Installing you&#8217;re boot loader by configuring a file called boot.conf that supercedes /etc/default/grub because someone had to add another layer or wheel on top of the problem is another annoyance.</p>
<p>And my pet peeve is Linux&#8217;s permission system interacting with mounted file systems, I might as well just su all the time because thats where I&#8217;m going, I shutter to think of what using this system would be like if you wheren&#8217;t the administrator.</p>
<p>I once heard someone say that a operating system that continually requires you to enter a root or administrator mode to circumvent authority to get every task done cannot be secure and its completely true.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m waiting for something to curb stomp, Mac, Windows, AND Linux, and hopefully its free software.</p>
<p>Maybe someday someone will rip the proprietary guts out of Android (and actually replace them rather then just ripping them out like Replicant) and make a general purpose operating system for PC, Tablet, or Phone out of it using the Linux kernel but trashing most of the userland.</p>As a follow Linux user, it is delusional to think that people that realize Linux is completely annoying ‘just can’t come to grips on the ways that Linux is different’.

Everything about the operating system is annoying at one time or another, I use it because its free, keeps malware out of my system, and its customizable, and I can get it not directly vendored by a corporation (though tons of them are involved in it).

Installing you’re boot loader by configuring a file called boot.conf that supercedes /etc/default/grub because someone had to add another layer or wheel on top of the problem is another annoyance.

Lawrence Weeks [Visitor] in response to: Fixing the Dreaded Error H202: When Hosting a Quickbooks Company File on a Linux ServerWed, 17 Aug 2016 00:19:41 +0000Lawrence Weeks[Visitor]c646@http://wdawe.com/<p>Thanks! We had Quickbooks Enterprise 13.0 installed, and it was working fine with the database server on a CentOS Samba host. Upgraded to version 16.0, and could not make it work. What was ultimately required was as you documented, using the NETBIOS name, and changing the hostname of the Samba server. Once the hostname was changed, the database started as &#8220;QBDBMgrN_26 -n QB_server_26 &#8230;&#8221; and multi-user mode began to work.</p>Thanks!
